The Order of the Dragon was a monarchical chivalric order founded by King Sigismund of Luxembourg in 1408. The order's purpose was to defend the Hungarian throne and the Christian faith against the Ottoman Empire, which was expanding into Europe at the time. The order's name comes from the dragon,which was the symbol of the king's father, Charles IV.
The members of the Order were primarily high-ranking nobles and princes from Hungary and other parts of Europe. They swore to defend the king and the kingdom against all enemies, both
foreign and domestic, and to uphold the Catholic faith.
The most famous member of the Order was Vlad III, also known as Vlad the Impaler or Dracula, who was made a member of the order by King Sigismund in 1431. Vlad is believed to have been inspired by the Order's mission to defend Christianity against the Ottoman Turks, and he famously fought against the Turks during his reign as Prince of Wallachia.
The Order of the Dragon continued to exist until the end of theKingdom of Hungary in 1918. Today, it is still remembered as an important symbol of Hungary's medieval history and its struggle against the Ottoman Empire.
